could've been much better

Rating: Null/10 (30 August 2003)

As I have mentioned before I like movies dealing with the end of the world kind of stories as well as scenes of empty and ravaged cities so I have been looking forward to seeing this one. Now after seeing the movie I have somewhat mixed feelings.
It started out great. The shots from the deserted London were astounding. Alex Palmer walking along the cityfs streets, around the parliament, Piccadilly Circus under the sound of this techno was pretty cool. The zombies were also well crafted. In spite of the obvious holes in the story, the first two acts were interesting and enjoyable. Unfortunately, the last (third) half of the film was terrible. The imbecile-turned-Rambo idea was something beyond me. It significantly ruined the good beginning.

Overall, taking into consideration the low budget with which this movie was shot, the great opening scenes and good soundtrack, I think that this movie is worth seeing. 10 for the beginning; overall, 7 stars out of 10.
